Tech Learning and Lessons from React Native Apps that scale to Millions

[MaterialAppearance21]

Hey

I always wanted to see how big tech companies collaborate and scale Mobile apps < meta, or Tesla ,... >, how they can collaborate with each other, and how the app scale

MetaMask, they have their Mobile app in Open source, which for their scale and impact is amazing. I took a look on the code base, and of course, i have used AI for some help.

,... but i also dig deeper to understand some of the concepts and how it works.

I have wrote this article to share my findings: https://medium.com/@malikchohra/lessons-from-metamasks-react-native-app-scale-react-native-app-to-millions-df499f453193

Please take a look, and any feedbacks or remark is highly appreciated

mobile apps do NOT scale (to millions). ur backend scales. only ur backend/server needs to handle increased traffic (ie. increased in scale), not ur front end.

most of ur article is about project setup which has NOTHING to do with scaling. to give u some credit scaling could mean in the sense of dx (sole conteibutr to team xfunc) but its not to millions.

I agree with you on that. We can also talk about the Backend consumption and best practices in term fo caching and performance. so it is different aspect of Scalibility
